I squeezed my face, so confused. Roy was kind of crazy sometimes. How could he have ordered this much food? Just because I was pregnant, didn't mean I was now some kind of foodie. I was definitely still going to eat the same way I always ate.
I scratched my head like I was confused. Oh, yeah, I was confused. Could he have ordered this for a guest? Was he expecting someone? And where the heck was he?
I yawned. Last night, for some reason, I was unable to have enough sleep. As far as I knew, pregnant women always slept a lot, but that was completely different for me. I hardly slept very well. I guessed it was because I was kind of used to staying up late at night
"Hey, princess?" I yelped when I heard his voice.
With a little frown, I snapped my neck around. "Come on. You don't want me to have a heart att
Renee______I scrunched my nose, choking on my own fart. I heard Roy mumble from behind me, but I ignored him. It wasn't my fault. My tummy kind of hurt, so this fart was because of his child. Could he blame me?"Renee," he bed-muffled. "Come on. You could have excused yourself."I bit my lower lip, my eyes jerking open. Shit, this was so embarrassing. Farting in front of him? The crumpling sound behind me denoted he was crawling towards me. Embarrassed, I shut my eyes back. At least, he would think I farted from my sleep."Come here, you naughty thing." He pulled me from behind, dug his lips into the skin of my neck.I remained silent, still pretending to be asleep. But, when he locked the inch between us, I yelped."Go away." I attempted to push him off me, but that didn't work. He only pulle
Tears crinkled in my eyes. I didn't like this at all. Everyone had begun clapping when I had stretched my hand to collect the ring, but now, they were muttering several unnecessary words."Mom." Roy stood straight, hurried to the annoying person he called his mom. "Wh-What are you doing here? What's up?"She turned to him, those evil eyes shooting him some glare. "You're an idiot. Have you taken it this far?"He sighed. "Mom, I get you. This is no longer a game. It's for real now. We've sorted things out between us already.""Sorted what?" She scoffed. Moving her arms to her chest, she inhaled loud. "My boy, I still don't get why you'll choose her over Kath. I mean, Kath's complete. She's just the woman I want for you. She's successful, decent, respectful. She has it all. What the heck do you see in this one?"I swallowed. No matter how I tried to make her like me, the hatr
"Kath, I can explain." She turned around the couch, hurried to me, blinking like a moron."H-How can you…" I still couldn't believe what I had heard. Or, was she kind of playing a prank on me? "How can you do this?! You're nuts?!" My voice covered the entire room.She quivered, only moving unstably. "S-See, it's not what you think. I was only—""Only what?!" I hit my hand hard across her face. She tripped backwards, held her cheek, gasped. "What's your problem? Why would you want to take Roy as well? Are you that much of a harlot?"After a while of being silent, she turned back to me, gave me a hard frown. Obviously, she wasn't sorry. The frown on her filthy eyebrows was enough proof."First, you call me a harlot? And now, you hit me? Bitch, who gives you that right?" She uttered. Her voice always held that creepy dramatic tone, but right now, the e
The moment he moved his hand to my shirt, I gasped, but was too weak to release myself from his grip. He checked whether or not I was wearing the necklace, and when he got a confirmation I wasn't with it, he threw me from his strong hold.I fell to the floor, sat on it, and felt too weak to even breath. Before he had come here, I was so tired. Now that he was moving my body like I was a paper, I felt even more tired."Search the entire room," he ordered his men. Without wasting time, they began scattering the room, looking for something that wasn't even here.He walked past me, heading somewhere. What was I to do now? How would I make him believe it wasn't with me? I didn't want him to know it was with mom, because there was no doubt that he would hurt her if he had to know.I sighed weakly. Where was Roy? He was the only person who knew how to handle his father, so why the he
I sipped from the hot tea Karen had served me, sitting on the bed like a pitiful animal. I still felt so weak and sad. To worsen it all, Roy hadn't come home yet. Fine, I understood he was probably busy, but what was stopping him from giving me just one phone call?I rubbed my knuckles against my eyes, sniffed. I would admit, I was completely dreaded. I really didn't know how to get rid of Scott. It seemed like he was forever going to haunt me."Can I come in?" Karen peeped through the door, gave me a smile.Yes, I was still so puzzled that she was being this nice. When she had given me this tea, I had thought she must have poisoned it, but well, I was only being negative and weird. The tea was completely fine.I gave her a curt nod, dropped the tea on the bedside table, and leaned my back against the headboard of the bed.She ambled to me. Slowly, she sat
Particularly, I had told Roy to drop me at Mom's place because I wanted to speak with her. Also, I was scared of staying alone in that house. At this point, it was time I began to care about my security. Clearly, staying alone there wasn't so safe for me."When will Roy return?" Mom dropped the last plate of meatballs on the left side of the table, and balanced my meal with a glass of orange juice."Soon. And thanks for this delicious meal," I appreciated. Taking a meatball, I threw it into my mouth, sighed on tasting it, and fixed my gaze at her. "Ma, we've gotta talk." I spoke amid a mouthful of meatballs.She sat by the other side of the table. Since mom and I grew up alone, there were only two chairs on this small dining table. When Melissa and Lisa had been living with us, we had two extra seats on the table. But now they were gone, the table only had a seat for mom and me.
Renee_____"What exactly do you wanna buy?" I asked Roy, as I pushed the cart forward. Today was literally one of the days we would shop this much. The cart was so full, yet Roy insisted we bought more things. Goodness knew what he had in mind.He just smiled, gave me a sideways glance. "You wanna know? You don't want a surprise?""Yeah, duh." I rolled my eyes."Okay," he said.Turning to the other cloth section of this store, he took the cart from me. "You're stressing yourself by pushing this. Don't try to be a good girlfriend, okay?""Blah, blah," I teased."Um…" He stopped walking. He pulled his hands from the cart, walked towards the shelf that had some sneakers shoes on it. "Did I tell you Tyler's been deported back to Canada?"I gasped, an
I squeezed my gown in my palm, shut my eyes tight, and began praying for a miracle to happen. Everyone was muttering one word or another, literally causing more inconvenience to me. All I could think of was how and when I would get to Roy.Being positive, glued to my posture, the power in the hall suddenly came up. Exhilarated, I involuntarily gasped. Good for me, Roy was still standing in front of the oldies. What a relief.I hurried to him, held his arm as I looked up at him. "What happened?" My voice was enough proof that I was really shaken."It's nothing." He pulled my hand from his arm, cupped it in his hand. "I guess it's an issue from the technical room. I've asked someone to check it. Are you scared?"Without hesitating, I nodded. "Very scared."He chuckled, leaned close, pecked my cheek. "Worrywart, you should stop being this scared all the time."&nb
